Hello! I haven't been around for a while, and there are a couple of reasons. Firstly, I've been working hard on my next book. I was shooting for 30-40k. I'm currently in the 50,000's and still going. The editor's booked for December 2, so I have a hell of a week ahead of me.

The second reason is I started a new blog. It's not much more active than this one's been, but I do intend for that one to be my main blog from now on. There'll be less emphasis on writing techniques, and more on what I hope readers/fans/potential fans would be interested in. I'll keep this blog up for archival purposes.

Maybe you'd just like to spread some good karma. (Ugh, that essay on Tibetan sand painting's really done my head in.) My new blog's feeling a bit unloved with just 2 followers. :(

Either way, I'm sure I'll see you around!
